Why /vr/ can't just admit that CV4 is simply the perfect Castlevania?
Perfect controls
Awesome graphic and music
Great level design
Not a metroidvania
The right difficulty
What's the point of being contrarian?

Soulless compared to Akumajou but since you can't afford a X68000 you wouldn't know.

Easy is not the right difficulty.

Because it's neither Bloodlines, nor PCE Dracula X

III and Haunted Castle are the only CV games that are hard.

I don't like things that are popular or mainstream because my taste in games is what makes sets me apart from the crowd. That's why the best Castlevania is clearly X68000. Rondo and Bloodlines are also valid choices

I mean, I agree, but why did you need to make this thread and post that AVGN video? Seems almost like a falseflag post.
Anyway yeah IV best 16-bit Castlevania.
X68000 is great, but I still prefer IV.

I find the difficulty spike in Castlevania (Death fight) too much. What are some Castlevania games that would sit better with me?

SCV4(Easy, but that autoscroll level near the end is a difficulty spike)
Bloodlines(Easy/Medium depending which character you use, but the final area does throw a few bosses at you in a row in classic Castlevania fashion)
Rondo of Blood(Boss rush at the end, but it's not that bad when you have jump+dodge and superpowered secondary weapons, even easier if you use Maria instead of Richtor)

Use Holy Water on all bosses except the first one and the first form of Dracula.

Way too easy. I beat it when I was 14 and was on the phone the whole time.

Too easy, lackluster bosses, and overpowered Simon; the subweapons are useless because of the 8-way whip. Dracula X is for real gamers

I've played the X68000 Akoumajou.

I agree, really. Especially
>The right difficulty
A gradual change from easy peasy early levels to pretty bloody tuff final levels, if that's not perfect, what is?
